CINCINNATI -- Bengals coach Zac Taylor doesn't remember the exact moment he knew Dan Pitcher was a quality coach.

But the first interaction still sticks out vividly.

During Taylor's one-year tenure as the University of Cincinnati's offensive coordinator, he remembers staying in the same hotel as the Bengals the night before a preseason game. When he entered the boardroom for a meeting with then-Bengals offensive coordinator Bill Lazor, Pitcher was also in the room.

At the time in 2016, Pitcher was just embarking on his journey with the Bengals as an offensive assistant coach.
